Born and raised in Australia, I was fortunate enough to live only an hour away from some of the best beaches in the world. As a result, I love the ocean and feel alive when I’m close to it.  There is no better place to think than sitting on a balcony staring at its bewitching blue depths. In my twenties, I got the chance to live overseas. Getting to experience life in other parts of the world is an extraordinary gift.

I have a degree in Economics—*whispers*which I never used—and after working for a few years moved to Japan to teach English. Japan was responsible for reigniting my Snoopy obsession. In 2013, I moved to America, and what an adventure that has been. I’m determined to see as many places as possible since one of my goals is to visit all fifty states.

For many years, I dreamed of writing a book but I always dismissed the idea as a fantasy rather than something that could become a reality. I spent my days working in jobs I wasn’t very passionate about in order to pay the bills. Over the years, many characters popped up inside my head to tell me their story. In 2013, I took the plunge and decided to share one of them and finally wrote my first book for publication.

A small selection of books I adore:

  • The Harry Potter Series
  • The Black Dagger Brotherhood
  • The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
  • The Sea of Tranquility
  • The Empyrean Series – sigh
  • The Fever Series—wishes JZB was real
  • Crescent City
  • And anything involving vampires, fae, or shifters of the hot, handsome, sexy variety

Other stuff I love:

  • Animals of all shapes and sizes. I particularly love elephants and will one day experience elephant camp. The camp allows you to ride and care for your own elephant each day—including washing him or her in the river
  • My ever expanding Snoopy collection
  • Making, decorating, and devouring cakes
  • Travelling the globe and experiencing life in other lands
  • Nail art with all the women of my clan

A Sample Of My Very Long Bucket List:

  1. Own an American muscle car
  2. Visit all 50 States in America
  3. Adopt an ex-racing greyhound
  4. Drive across the Nullarbor Plain (google it—it’s wild country)
  5. Travel to Antarctica
  6. Ride a camel around Uluru (Ayers Rock)
  7. Visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, FL
  8. Make it on to the NYT Best Sellers list (at least once)
  9. Visit an elephant rescue centre in Thailand
  10. Take horse riding lessons
